MrBrightside Posted August 25, 2016 Author Posted August 25, 2016 No worries mate I'll post up the exact recipe later On a side note, the Uwell Crown 2 came, must admit it's a beast! Flavour and vapour is the best yet I've had from any tank. Quote
MrBrightside Posted August 26, 2016 Author Posted August 26, 2016 Joe this would be for 50ml at .3% nicotine... At 65% VG...2ml nicotine (in VG @ 72mg)1.5 ml PG30.5 ml VG10 ml Cappella Lemon Mirangue Pie5 ml Cappella Juicy Lemon1 ml Ethyl MaltolOr just use 20% LMP and 10% JL with the 1% EM.I find that it needs about 5 days steeping to be at its best. Although the flavours sound high % wise, they are quite weak and it deffo needed extra Lemon and at those levels it's perfect. Tastes like you've just actually had lemon Mirangue pie... Quote

Mr Fro Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 How did you get on with it Joe?I received my first delivery of DIY stuff yesterday so now my spare room looks more like Mengele's lab than an office!I made up a batch of Brightside Special and it smells pretty good. Bit of a sod you have to wait a couple of weeks to try it though. Also, I'm struggling to find a rip off of Elemental E-liquid Vanilla - anyone got any pointers? Quote
MrBrightside Posted November 15, 2016 Author Posted November 15, 2016 That's vapable now dude, you tried it yet?Try capable.com for your flavours. Flavourings are a huge hit n miss. You'll figure it out after a while what works well and how to round flavours off nicely. But, my advice would be to mix up 10ml bottles first rather than going all out on 30 or 50ml bottles and realising it tastes gross... Quote
Mr Fro Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 It was rough as a tramps toothbrush! Something went bandy as it separated after it had been standing and emulsified when I shook it.I'm making up 10 or 15ml trial batches and chuck the occasional crap batch. I find leaving the made up stuff open on the water cylinder for a couple of days helps take the harshness out of them. Quote
MrBrightside Posted November 17, 2016 Author Posted November 17, 2016 Where you getting your stuff Fro?Are you adding ethyl maltol?Remember to give them a shake every day, and I squeeze the excess air out also when I'm doing it to switch it over and get fresh air in the top.Use the ejuice me up calculator also. Quote
Mr Fro Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 I got the stuff from vapable and chefs kitchen (I got Capella) and I did add the EM. Even with loads of regular shaking there's still a small amount of separation. Quote
MrBrightside Posted November 17, 2016 Author Posted November 17, 2016 That's weird I get no separation...Are you measuring it in with blunt syringes? Or drops?Pop over for a brew sometime dude and I'll show you what I do if you like . I'll knock you a bottle up.I get my nicotine from the alchemists cupboard, and pg/VG on eBay (can give you links if you like). Quote
Mr Fro Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 I'm using a selection of 5 and 10ml syringes. I tried a large gauge needle to start with but the VG is too thick.I'm back working in Great Abington so I'm just up the road - it'd be good to see what I'm doing wrong! Quote
Mawsley Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Seven days no vape.I tried cutting down to 1.5mg then 0mg before, but it was awful and a failure. This time, a week ago, I decided I'd just jack it in. So much better, only twice have I wanted to have a vape and that moment passed quickly. There's no way nic is as addictive in vaping as it is in smoking. Quote
MrBrightside Posted November 18, 2016 Author Posted November 18, 2016 No your right mate. I've smashed a few tanks at work, never clucked for a nicotine fix. I just like doing this, and have thought of just jacking it up, but enjoy it at the mo. Quote

I just like doing this, and have thought of just jacking it up, but enjoy it at the mo.As did I.We just got back from the pub, that was tricky. Having a puff is part and parcel of having a pint. I didn't, I had some poncy pie where the peas had to go on top - it was like they were scared of the chips or something. Bloody noncey food. Quote
rennie Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Much as I'm interested in this (ex 60 a day smoker down to about 20)I worry that vaping is becoming the latest "in" thing!(watch a 40's/50's film, they all smoke)I have genuine concerns that it will turn out to be at least as bad for us Quote

The analogy is leaving a building: vaping has the dangers associated with climbing through a ground floor window, smoking is like jumping from the sixth floor.It's not safe, the safest thing to do is not take anything into your lungs, but it is (and I'll happily provide a ream of studies to support this) substantially safer.It works because it mimics smoking but also provides a hobby aspect. The likes of Konstantinos Farsalinos have postulated that it carries a fraction of the addictive quality of smoking too - and I can anecdotally support that.Big Pharma have done an excellent job of muddying the waters, don't believe the bullshit.

I'll knock you a bottle up.I get my nicotine from the alchemists cupboard, and pg/VG on eBay (can give you links if you like). Knocked some up just now. I know you have to let it steep but i thought id give it a shake n vape.Its pretty good. In fact it is really good. Loving the after taste. Quote
MrBrightside Posted November 23, 2016 Author Posted November 23, 2016 The lemon meringue pie Joe? Yeah it's lovely eh? Quote
Joe85 Posted November 23, 2016 Posted November 23, 2016 Very good. Will have to knock up a litre for steeping as the 50ml is getting a bit of a hammering! Quote
Mickmie Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 I find putting the bottles in to a sink of warm water helps when mixing them, the liquid aint as thick and it mixes a lot easier.Sent from my HUAWEI GRA-L09 using Tapatalk Quote
Mawsley Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Wow. One month and no vape. Seriously, stunningly easier than quitting fags. Quote
Joe85 Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Wow. One month and no vape. Seriously, stunningly easier than quitting fags. Fair play.I get nervous after 5 mins with out my e-cig. Quote

Fair play.I get nervous after 5 mins with out my e-cig.I used to take mine everywhere but gradually began leaving it if I was out in the car (or even nipping to the toilet). Guess I'd drastically cut down by the time I pulled the plug. Quote
